Security keeps coming on & the truck will not start. We have tried to reset many times. The security light will go off; but as soon as we try to start the truck; the light will come back on & the truck will not start. We have replaced the security module & there is not a chip in the key. Is there something else that would cause this issue?

First, are you sure of the engine size? I'm not showing a 5.7L for this vehicle.

Also, everything I show says the key should be chip in the key. There is a hall effect sensor that determines if the key is correct when you turn it.

Listen, I need you to have the computer scanned to see if there are trouble codes. I have system checks, but I have no idea where to look for your type of problem.
